018- Happily NEVER After.

So a while ago I started writing this story. It was called 'The Princess and the Dream.' It was suppose to be this love story where a princess fell in love with a commoner, someone who definitely doesn't fit with her. And it was suppose to be this romantic story of how the mere commoner turns out to be HER prince. The one who shows her a whole new world. Someone who makes all her dreams come true. Of course they were suppose to have their share of hardships. And yet they were gonna fight and somehow come out victorious. The King was suppose to finally come to accept the couple. His daughter, the princess with a mere commoner. He was suppose to give them his blessing, because family is everything. You do everything to make sure your family is happy. Basically, in the end, love was suppose to win. The story was suppose to have a happy ending. They were suppose to live happily ever after.

I spent days trying to put the story together. I had a clear view of how the story would end. Of how it should be. Of their happy ending. But the words never came out, you know why? Coz it's all a bunch of bullshit. Love conquers all, hah! What a bunch of crap! Happily ever afters DON'T exist in real life. Us, writers, we're so desperate and hung up on seeing a happy ending that we invent these stories of princes and horses and carriages and happily ever afters. We are so damn adamant on making it a happy ending. I have to tell myself to wake up, and look around. Nothing is perfect. There's no happily ever afters. Its time to face the REALITY!

In reality the story of princess Eva and the shoemaker, would go something like this. They met, they fell in love. The king got pissed, he banishes the shoemaker. And the princess just has to convince herself to move the hell on. Wipe those tears off your face. Hold your head high, princess! Coz the shoemaker might have been THE ONE! But we don't get to BE  happy with our 'the ones'. One thing or another WILL tear you apart. Whether it be family or society. Coz this is life, its no fairytale. We don't get our happy endings. Family don't budge just coz you're in frigging LOOVE! Society won't go all 'AWWW' just because you and the shoemaker are an epic love story in the making. Love, its just another word in a million. It holds little meaning.

Its time to face reality. You're not gonna get your happily ever after. I am sorry, but that's just how it is. *shrugs*
